By Mike McGraw (Daily Herald Blog)Even after Kobe Bryant and his broken finger scored 42 points on Tuesday, I think John Salmons deserves some credit. He hasn’t been the scorer the Bulls expected this season, but he’s been pretty good on defense.

Checking the play-by-play, it appeared that Salmons and Hinrich each spent about 20 minutes guarding Bryant. The Lakers star scored 14 of his points and committed 6 of his 8 turnovers while Salmons was in the game. Salmons scored just 2 points himself, so I guess the lesson is stay out of foul trouble.
